#MomTruths at Mom 2.019 With Presenting Sponsor Amazon

Amazon is committed to helping make families lives easier, and at Mom 2.0, they’re helping mom (and dad) check things off their task list and reclaim time for the things they love. But it doesn’t stop there! Here are just a few ways Amazon can help you through life’s many #MomTruths moments:

Streamline your To-Dos

Alexa helps keep you – and the family – organized and entertained. Whether it’s preparing for back-to-school, organizing your kids’ next birthday party, or planning your next family vacation, Alexa is designed to make life easier by letting you voice-control your world.

Alexa Shopping creates convenient time savers for busy families. Whether you’re shopping in a Whole Foods Market store, a local retailer, a farmer’s market, or online on Amazon, Alexa helps customers organize their needs and get their shopping done more quickly.

Alexa Skill Blueprints let families create their own skills to personalize their Alexa experience using a set of easy-to-use templates. Whether you’re creating a customized Chore Chart for your kids, a Babysitter skill to help the sitter find and remember things, or teaching Alexa to answer common questions like “Alexa, who’s the best mom?,” Alexa Skill Blueprints are useful and fun for the whole family. They takes a few minutes to create and no coding experience is needed.

Looking for a unique gift idea? Amazon Handmade is the premier destination for gifting and shopping from local small businesses. Shop a wide selection of genuinely handcrafted items from Artisans around the world, including jewelry, home décor, kitchen essentials, beauty and accessories.

Reclaim Some “Me” Time

Grab a Kindle and indulge your love of reading—Kindles can hold thousands of books to keep you entertained for hours. Plus, all Kindle devices come with Audible so you can listen to the world’s largest library of audiobooks–just pair with Bluetooth to take the story with you anytime, anywhere. And don’t worry about recharging because Kindle devices have a battery life that’s measured in weeks not hours.

Whether you’re planning a family movie night or treating yourself to a non-kid show for once, Fire TV gives you access to Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, YouTube, and more on the biggest screen in your home. Stream all your favorites such as Big Little Lies, The Good Place, The Crown, and much more, just by asking Alexa.

Need a little break on-the-go? Fire tablets are built for entertainment, with access to the world’s best content selection, including millions of movies, TV shows, songs, books, magazines, apps, and games—with free unlimited cloud storage for all Amazon content.

In search of a new sofa to cozy up with the family on? What about some throw pillows and blankets, and while we’re at it a coffee table and side chairs? Amazon Home has everything you need to make your house and home, with exclusive brands such as Rivet, Stone & Beam, Ravenna Home and Now House by Jonathan Adler, customers can shop everything for the home with fast, free shipping – even on furniture.

Connect with your Kids

Fire Kids Edition tablets are the perfect solution for curious kiddos. Each one comes with a year of Amazon FreeTime Unlimited, providing kids access to over 20,000 premium books, Audible books, educational apps, games, and videos, plus over 2,000 Spanish language titles. FreeTime also provides peace of mind for parents with access to parental controls that encourage learning before play, and give parents the ability to easily manage their child’s screen time.

Make family learning fun with Amazon’s STEM Club, a subscription program that delivers hand-selected, top-quality science, technology, engineering, and math toys right to your door. For $19.99 per month, subscribers will receive one age-appropriate, high-quality STEM Club toy each month that will encourage your child to learn through play. From robotics to natural sciences, a new discovery is always on the way.

Ready to add some new kids’ books into your nighttime routine? Prime Book Box is a subscription that delivers hand-picked children’s books every 1, 2, or 3 months at up to 40% off List Price. Ideal for readers from baby to 12 years old, every delivery is filled with adventures!
